The farmhouse itself is lovely, very warm, clean and comfortable and Charmaine and Chris couldn't have been more welcoming and friendly and breakfast was fresh and plentiful. I would love an excuse to stay there again. The only thing I would say to anyone planning to stay here is that you probably need to use a GPS unit to find it: it is right at the end of a very twisting single-track road but my old unit found it from the postcode without any problem.

Harts Lane is so narrow, my partner hesitated pulling our car into the lane and then really had second thoughts about pulling into the tiny parking area. I was too busy loving everything I could see to care about that! Then, we walked into the bed and breakfast, where an out-of-breath Linda Smith greeted us warmly and apologized for not being ready. We didn't mind. After all, there were TWO pubs in one TINY village! ;) When we returned from our obligatory pub visit, Linda led us upstairs and to our room. Do you know how sometimes places look clean but don't smell clean? This clean room smelled GREAT! Then, I went into the bathroom. It was completely remodeled and very modern. I was in heaven! A quaint, clean bedroom with a clean modern shower! There was even a place for me to sit down in the bedroom and put on my makeup. I decided to use it for sitting down and reading a daily devotional, but just having this wonderful space was a plus. Did I mention there was a fireplace? The next morning, Linda cooked us "whatever we wanted." My partner happily ordered sausage and eggs, and I ordered bacon and eggs. While we waited, I looked around the family dining room. There were wonderful family pictures--Linda and Ian Smith's wedding pictures, their children, etc. My partner meanwhile marveled at his freshly squeezed orange juice and some of the woodwork in the room. Then, the food came. The bacon was the size of 4 American slices stuck together but a lot thicker. Everything was delicious, but after we ate, we felt like we needed a nap! If you go to this area of England, stay here! The Smiths are very congenial people, their accommodations are clean, their food is outstanding, and the village is picturesque. You'll swear you're in a movie.

After a visit to the impressive and informative website we booked a room for a Sunday in mid June. Our late afternoon Sunday evening arrival was greeted with sunshine and Calvin checked us in and showed us to our room, which was stunning. We weren't sure what to expect in such a tiny village but it's fair to say that no expense was spared in the fitting out of the new bedrooms block in a building separate from the main pub / restaurant. The linens were gorgeous, the bathroom spacious and the rooms well fitted with all mod cons! We had dinner in the dining room with some old friends who came over form South Petherton. They hadn't been in a while but were happy for an excuse to dine at the Red Lion as the food has a good reputation among the locals. No one was disappointed and a decent wine list and selection of real ales helped to make the evening very sociable. Breakfast was fresh and tasty and served with individually and freshly ground coffee, which was a perfect way to start a buy day of site seeing. We didn't check the wardrobe on our way out and realized when we got to Stonehenge that we had left our jackets behind. A couple of phone calls later and Calvin was on the case eventually and graciously getting our jackets to Dublin for us. All is now good in the world. We'd highly recommend the Red Lion in Babcary.

The Red Lion is split into two eating areas: restaurant and pub. The pub is lovely and cosy, and we chose to et here. The food is your typical gastronomic fare and we tucked into paella and the lamb shank, though the menu varies daily. Dessert was also excellent, particularly recommend the affogato. It seems to be very popular with locals in the area, and you'll see a very full car park on arrival (you have to drive due to remoteness). Listen to the owner's recommendations, he's very eccentric but obviously passionate about the food they serve.

We didn't even stay with the in-laws but they were happy for us to come and join them for breakfast (we did have to pay, but it was worth it).

The Penthouse suite is the only exception. Its very modern. Its only a short walk through the park to get into the city centre and it benefits from free parking too.

Every square inch was spotless, and a private car park made it worth the safe and scenic 5-minute downhill walk to the town center. The hospitality was friendly, welcoming, personable, yet also professional. Huzzy and I agreed: we would come back to Bath just to stay here! Thank you James and Eliza for providing the best stay--even surpassing our Buckingham Palace hotel in London!--of our vacation.

When we arrived at the 139 in Bath, we were shown to the waiting room and served a nice beverage. The host knew exactly who we were and addressed us by name. We felt welcomed. The room was comfortable and beautiful- very classic in look. We had a great sleep on the bed, like I mentioned- comfortable room! Squeamish skip this paragraph... When I arrived in Bath I was deep into my trip and short on socks. The sock bag in my suitcase had reached critical mass and was going to be a new kind of 'Dirty Bomb'. When asked if the 139 had a washer and dryer, they said of course. They braved the bag. I got my socks back the next morning, folded. Thanks! Breakfast the next morning was wonderful- fresh eggs, great bacon, crunchy and chewy bread (ok so I'm not a food writer). Lots more options than a traditional eggs and bacon breakfast were available. Thanks 139 for a wonderful experience. It's been a couple years since we stayed, but the memory is fresh in my mind.
